21 CFR Parts 510 and 529

[Docket No. FDA-2009-N-0665]


New Animal Drugs; Change of Sponsor; Isoflurane

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal 
drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for an abbreviated new 
animal drug application (ANADA) for isoflurane, USP, from Nicholas 
Piramal India Ltd. UK, to Piramal Healthcare Ltd.

DATES: This rule is effective December 28, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David R. Newkirk, Center for 
Veterinary Medicine (HFV-100), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 
Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 240-276-8307, e-mail: 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Nicholas Piramal India Ltd. UK has informed 
FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest 
in, ANADA 200-237 for Isoflurane, USP, to Piramal Healthcare Ltd., 
Piramal Tower, Ganpatrao Kadam Marg, Lower Parel, Mumbai - 400 013, 
India. Accordingly, the regulations are amended in 21 CFR

[[Page 68530]]

529.1186 to reflect this change of sponsorship.
    Following this change of sponsorship, Nicholas Piramal India Ltd. 
UK is no longer the sponsor of an approved application. In addition, 
Piramal Healthcare Ltd. is not currently listed in the animal drug 
regulations as a sponsor of an approved application. Accordingly, 21 
CFR 510.600(c) is being amended to remove the entries for Nicholas 
Piramal India Ltd. UK to add entries for Piramal Healthcare Ltd.
    This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 
804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.'' 
Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements 
in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
